    A weird one that works for me is a cup of hot chocolate. Add fiber powder to it, and Boom. Double-acting.

    I guess if you're diabetic you could try a cup of black coffee and a bowl of plain oatmeal? Or a bowl of fiber cereal the unsweetened kind like grape nuts or one of the fiber one types.

    "Peaches, pears, plums, prunes, pineapple, peppers. If it starts with p it will make you go."

    My doctor has said as much. For me also having oatmeal (which is awesome with fresh peaches and some cinnamon". And I have to work at drinking enough fluids. Also keep any baked or pasta or grains type carbs whole grain, which are also lower on the glycemic index so can be a win/win.

    I have a level tablespoon of chia seeds in my smoothie or yoghurt every single day. I have never looked back.
